SENIOR HIKE AT HENRY HORTON STATE PARK

Williamson County Parks and Recreation (WCPR) invites area seniors (55+) to join us on Wednesday, November 28, 2018 to visit Henry Horton State Park.

Participants must be able to walk independently on different types of terrain, and provide their own lunch/snacks and water for this hike. This outing is weather dependent. Should inclement weather require cancellation, participants will be notified as soon as a determination is made.

The group will depart the Williamson County Enrichment Center, 110 Everbright Ave., Franklin, at 9:00 a.m. The cost of the outing is $3 for transportation. Registration is online at www.wcparksandrec.com  (#12758) and ends November 27 or when full. For more information, contact Krystal Turner at (615) 786-0186 ext. 2421 or krystal.turner@williamsoncounty-tn.gov.

Set in the rolling hills of Middle Tennessee, the 1523 acre park is located on the former estate of the late Henry H. Horton, 36th governor of Tennessee. Running through the park is the historic Duck River, one of the most bio-diverse ecosystems in the entire world. Remnants of a mill and bridge operated and used by the Wilhoite family for over a century may be seen today on one of the trails.
